Each wedding at Grand Marquise Ballroom looks like this-- the space is just perfectly elegant. But the personalities I've worked with at the venue have all been so unique! This is, in fact, the only wedding I've had here or anywhere with a Duck's Donut Cake.
The couple wasn't really into portraits.. but loved donuts, so here we are. Ha! Just kidding, we did do a few inside, but this is my favorite and I think shows their personalities best.
Also I felt I wasn't totally at my best for a little bit.. I may have knocked something loose.. but that's ok when it turns out fun. So, confession time.. worst on the job accident I've had to date! See that photo of the bride and her maid of honor squinting at me in horror inside the limo? Well, I had just picked myself up after I TRIPPED on the wheel well climbing inside. I then face planted into the stereo because of course I wasn't going to drop my camera stuff. It was really quite painful and makes me completely wonder at how resilient I am. I had a bit of a scratch on my forehead, and was a tiny bit shook up. After a few awkward pictures in the limo and trying to find a replacement photographer for about 5 minutes, the show had to go on! In the end it all turned out ok, and I am determined to never do that particular injury again. ;)
Brickhouse and me! Selfie portraits are hard! What. an amazing live band!
You may notice below... they were extremely receptive to the idea of letting the guests and bride and groom play on their instruments. The kids loved it! I was impressed :)
And yeah, that was a food truck at the wedding! Dayum! Yeah, it was pretty good ;) Check out Cousins Maine Lobster truck next time you see it.
